THREE months after he was appointed acting executive Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Nigerian Communications Com- mission (NCC), Senate, yesterday, confirmed Prof. Umar Garba Danbatta as the substantive CEO.
NCC is the telecommunications regulator for all telecoms operators and service providers in the country.
President Muhammadu Buhari appointed Danbatta in an acting capacity on August 4 following the expiration of the tenure of Dr. Eugene Juwah.
Senate also confirmed the appointment of Ahmed
Kuru as managing director of the Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria (AMCON), as well as Kola Ayeye, Eberechukwu Uneze and Aminu Ismail as executive directors.
Confirming their nominations, Senate said it was satisfied that they would deliver on the mandate as- signed to them by Buhari. In the meantime, the
Senate has passed a resolution, urging the Federal Government to immortalise the late former governor of Kogi State, Abubakar Audu, who died last Sunday.
Audu was the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the yet-to-be concluded gubernatorial election held in Kogi State.
